Boston becomes first city to lose a home Game 7 to an 8-seed in both hockey and basketball in the same season.

Nice we made history
If only we were the Bucks and just lost in 5 instead, right?
And both times to Miami teams lmao fuck this fucking city
Maybe Pats can get Brady back to bring back the winning energy
fucking disgusting
Tbh this is the worst part to me. I’ve had a good sports life, seen a lot chips, and right now all I’m trying to do is not feel embarrassed as a fan. Losing to two 8 seeds from Florida at home has me embarrassed.
Who cares? There’s less people in the world who care about sports than those who do. Let other sports fans laugh and taunt. It’s deserving.
But I can say this…. Across the 4 major sports, and my personal 5th (NASCAR) I have witnessed and enjoyed 14 championships in my 31 years of living. 14 championships.
14 fucking championships.
Most fans are lucky to witness more than 1.
We’re spoiled. Let people have their moment to bring us down. Who cares?
Fun cherry picked stat. No one cares and will ever care lmao
Thanks. Now fuck off.
Florida has Boston’s number this year.
Honestly guys I blame myself (I know, it’s stupid). But get this: I am from San Francisco, but my dad is from Boston. My favorite teams are the big 4 in Boston, and my secondary teams (if Boston ain’t playing that day) are those from the Bay Area (Kings over Warriors though, screw the Warriors). When I first got into sports it was the second Pats loss to the Giants, then the following year my secondary NFL team (49ers) lost to Baltimore. This year I got cable and watched all my teams for the first time again: 49ers lose NFCCG, Bruins lose game 7 and Kings lose game 7 on same day, and then the Celtics lose game 7 tonight. The only team that I seem to be good luck for is the Sox, I was born in 04, and got to meet the team as an infant, my mom told them that I was their good luck charm, broke the curse that season. I’ve been bad luck for both my favorite teams and my secondary teams In my first years watching them (or watching again), all except for the Red Sox. So, sorry guys.
Salt in the wounds
That’s very specific
And both of those 8 seeds are in the finals now
Boston gets in people’s heads.
Civic pride right there
As a Penguins fan … I don’t really know how to feel about this stat.
Pointless stat. Remember they also had a better season than 27 other teams.
Just kick me in the balls why don’t you
Fuck this timeline
Bruins still felt worse
